THE TEAM'S WORK LAYS IMPORTANT FOUNDATIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AI THAT IS SAFE AND ETHICAL TO INTERACT WITH ACROSS A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS. IN 2023, MOSAIC PUBLISHED 38 PAPERS, FIVE OF WHICH WON OUTSTANDING OR BEST PAPER AWARDS ACROSS THREE CONFERENCES. PRIOR PRIOR SEEKS TO ADVANCE COMPUTER VISION TO CREATE AI SYSTEMS THAT SEE, EXPLORE, LEARN, AND REASON ABOUT THE WORLD. IN 2023 THE PRIOR TEAM PUBLISHED 8 PAPERS IN TOP VENUES. THE PRIOR TEAM ALSO RECEIVED 257 CITATIONS OF THEIR VISPROG OPEN FRAMEWORK FOR HANDLING COMPLEX VISUAL REASONING TASKS LIKE VISUAL QUESTION ANSWERING, OBJECT TAGGING, IMAGE EDITING AND ANNOTATING, AND MORE FROM SIMPLE NATURAL LANGUAGE INSTRUCTIONS. THE TEAM EXPANDED ITS PLATFORM FOR BUILDING SIMULATED ENVIRONMENTS FOR TRAINING AI AGENTS WITH THE ADDITION OF PHONE2PROC, A WAY TO TRANSFER REAL-WORLD IMAGES OF A ROOM INTO REALISTIC SIMULATIONS. PRIOR ALSO RELEASED A NEW PLATFORM, SATLAS, FOR EXPLORING INFRASTRUCTURAL CHANGES TO THE EARTH'S SURFACE OVER TIME USING OPENLY AVAILABLE SATELLITE IMAGERY.SEMANTIC SCHOLAR SEMANTIC SCHOLAR SEEKS TO ACCELERATE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND ENHANCE ACCESS TO SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE VIA AI TOOLS. THE SEMANTIC SCHOLAR PLATFORM IS A FREE, AI-POWERED RESEARCH TOOL FOR SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE THAT PROVIDES BETTER WAYS FOR RESEARCHERS TO DISCOVER NEW KNOWLEDGE AND KEY INSIGHTS. SEMANTICSCHOLAR.ORG HAD OVER 80 MILLION VISITORS IN 2023 AND COVERS OVER 220 MILLION SCIENTIFIC PAPERS ACROSS ALL ACADEMIC DISCIPLINES. IN 2023, SEMANTIC SCHOLAR PUBLISHED 36 PAPERS, LAUNCHED SEVERAL NEW AI-BACKED FEATURES FOR EASIER, CLEARER DISCOVERY AND UNDERSTANDING OF SCIENTIFIC PAPERS, AND UNDERTOOK AN ACCESSIBILITY PROJECT CALLED THE SEMANTIC READER AIMED AT MAKING SCIENTIFIC PAPERS MORE UNDERSTANDABLE AND ACCESSIBLE FOR EVERYONE.EARTHRANGER EARTHRANGER IS A FREE PLATFORM THAT AIDS PROTECTED AREA MANAGERS, ECOLOGISTS, AND BIOLOGISTS IN MAKING MORE INFORMED OPERATIONAL DECISIONS FOR WILDLIFE CONSERVATION. EARTHRANGER SUPPORTS ECOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT, PROMOTES SUSTAINABLE COEXISTENCE THROUGH PROACTIVE PLANNING, MONITORING, AND REACTION COORDINATION, AND ADVANCES DOMAIN AWARENESS FOR MORE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT SECURITY OPERATIONS. EARTHRANGER IS USED BY 449 CONSERVATION PROGRAMS IN OVER 69 COUNTRIES ACROSS SIX CONTINENTS. THE TEAM HAS OVER 239 ACTIVE DEPLOYMENTS IN THE FIELD.SKYLIGHT SKYLIGHT IS A MARITIME MONITORING AND ANALYSIS SOFTWARE THAT HELPS IMPROVE MARITIME TRANSPARENCY AND COMBAT ILLEGAL FISHING BY SURFACING SUSPICIOUS EVENTS AND PROVIDING ACTIONABLE INTELLIGENCE TO PROTECT OCEANS. BY APPLYING ADVANCED ANALYTICS, INCLUDING STATE-OF-THE-ART AI, TO A COMBINATION OF VESSEL IDENTIFYING INFORMATION AND VESSEL BEHAVIOR HISTORY WITH REAL-TIME VESSEL TRACKING DATA AND REMOTE IMAGING, SKYLIGHT ENABLES ANALYSTS TO IDENTIFY POTENTIAL ILLEGAL, UNREPORTED, AND UNREGULATED FISHING AND ALERT AUTHORITIES WHO CAN TAKE ENFORCEMENT AND COMPLIANCE ACTION AND CONTRIBUTE TO CREATING FISHERIES TRANSPARENCY. USED IN OVER 60 COUNTRIES WORLDWIDE, SKYLIGHT ACCELERATES THE WAY ORGANIZATIONS MAKE OPERATIONAL DECISIONS CRITICAL TO PROTECTING OUR OCEAN.CLIMATE MODELING CLIMATE MODELING FOCUSES ON CREATING FASTER, MORE EFFICIENT, MODERNIZED OPEN-SOURCE MODELS TO ADVANCE IMPORTANT RESEARCH IN GLOBAL CLIMATE MODEL PROJECTIONS. THE CLIMATE MODELING TEAM DEVELOPS OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE SO THE BROADER CLIMATE MODELING COMMUNITY CAN EASILY ADOPT THEIR ADVANCES, AS WELL AS PARTNERS WITH A LEADING CLIMATE MODELING CENTER, NOAA'S GEOPHYSICAL FLUID DYNAMICS LABORATORY ("GFDL"), TO ENSURE THEIR WORK BUILDS ON GFDL'S VALUABLE EXPERIENCE. THE TEAM'S WORK IS FOCUSED ON IMPROVING NOAA'S EXPERIMENTAL FINE-GRID MODEL, SHIELD, WHICH SHARES COMPONENTS WITH THE US GLOBAL WEATHER FORECASTING MODEL.
